DNR's Hunting, Trapping Q&A Is Wednesday

Monday

Feb 24, 2014 at 3:15 AM

Hunters and trappers who want to have a say regarding changes to Iowa’s hunting regulations are encouraged to participate in the Iowa Department of Natural Resources’ live question and answer session on Facebook from noon to 2:30 p.m. Wednesday, Feb. 26.

The session originally was scheduled for Tuesday, Feb. 25.

The DNR wants Iowans to share their hunting and trapping successes in 2013 and comment on what changes they’d like to see in 2014 in the session. DNR wildlife research supervisor Willie Suchy will answer the questions live.

To ask a question, post it as a comment on the “Live Q&A” post that the DNR will post at noon Wednesday. You can also post questions ahead of time on the DNR’s Facebook Timeline at www.facebook.com/iowadnr. Questions received after 2:30 p.m. Wednesday will be answered, but at a later time.

The live Q&A will now be held on the same day as statewide public meetings that will also gather comments and suggestions for changes in the 2014 hunting and trapping seasons. Information on the Feb. 26 evening meetings, including locations, is available at http://www.iowadnr.gov/hunting.
